The editor sighed deeply and admit

"Of course you do" continued the
visitor. "You grow so tired that you
want relief. AS we advance in learn

lectual enjoyment, and as humor is an
intellectual enjoyment, 1t should keep

smile of absolute truth. The humor of

"How"
by writing true humor instead Of

THAT seems to me to be an impossi-
bility, since laughter is the exaggera-
ton of a certain emotion"
"Oh, l don't want people to laugh.

THE PRESENT ADMINISTRATIVE ON
AND THE STATE DEBT.
PlCaY une.

The Baton Rouge CapltolIan Advo-
cate, in an elaborate article on the State
debt question, seems to convey the i'm
preston that the opening OF the
Nichols campaign has had bad effect
upon the credit of the common wealth.
In the first place there has been no
serious discussion of the debt question
by the Reform press except upon the
one point of the amendment TO the
dept ordinance, a move which even the
bondholders themselves now regret.
The State authorities, which on the
face of the returns gave good grounds
to suspect that the amendment had
been counted in,'' were the ones who
inflicted q blow upon the bonds. There
is no disposition, however, to revive
these issues, and the majority of the
people are perfectly willing to let the
debt question alone.
In the face of the record it is scarcely
polite for any of the representatives
of the administration to call attention
to its financial management. The
credit of the State is probably lower to-
day than that of any State in the
Union. It's bonds bearing per cent
interest are at discount of Is per cent.
Its warrants are hawked about the
streets at AZ to 65 cents on the dollar.
There is not bank in the State that
will act as its Fiscal Agent. 1t is true
that speculative movement a short
time since put the bonds up some, but
il was mere IDEAL" and they went
back to their original rate.
Nichols was not a candidate in 1886,
and the bonds in the beginning of that
wear were worth only 75tc. Nichols
was not u candidate in January, 1885.
and the bonds We're worth then only
664. Nichols was not a candidate in
January, 1884, but on the contrary. Nc
Emery had the nomination and had
been governor for a long time filling
the unexpired term Of Wilt, and yet
the bonds were worth only TIC.
Nearly seven years have passed since
the new constitution was adopted. the
first five of which required only per
cent interest on the debt, and vet so
reckless has been the management that
not dollar is provided to pay the in-
terest of the bonds as they fall due
Each January the coupons have to be
paid on borrowed money.
The baby bonds which had to redeem
those S11 100000 of back taxes are at Il
discount of so per cent. Some Of the
coupons are unpaid and the principal
is overdue. These bonds outstanding.
amounting to about $1,250,0O0. have
been practically repudiated, since no
provision or even attempt at provision
has been made to pay either principal
or interest. What with the drainage of
the funds through extravaganza and
Ring methods, the appropriations have
exceeded the revenues, and the floating
debt has actually increased.
These are facts known to all the peo-
pie of Louisiana who care to post them
selves, and they are known also to
Wall and Lombard streets. The credit
of the State has everything to gain by
passing under the control of an honest,
patriotic and prudent Democrat like
General Francis I. Nichols, who will
stop the leaks in the Treasury, inter
pose his veto upon extravagant appro-
priations, and inspire confidence at
home and abroad.

Enjoy Life.

What truly beautiful world we live
in! Nature gives us grandeur of noun
tains, glens and oceans, and thousands
of means of enjoyment. We can de-
sire no better when in perfect health
but how often do the majority OF peo-
Pile feel like giving it up dsheartened,
discouraged and worn out with dis
ease, when there is no occasion for
this feeling. as every sufferer can easily
obtain satisfactory proof, that Green's
august FloWer, will make them free
from disease, as when born. Dyspep-
sia and Liver Complaint are the direct
causes OF seventyfive per cent. of such
maladies as BiDiousness. Indigestion.

tressing symptoms. Three doses of

The Public not the Governors Pet
Claiborne Guardian.

Governor McEnery labored strenuously
to get the debt amendment of 1882
through the legislature, both by special
messages aud personal appeals to indi-
vidual members, as we are told. The
amendment was defeated by the popu-
lar vote, but frauduIently counted in.
This was apparent to him, but he never
urged the legislature to hunt down the
fraud and protect the people against it.
He appeared willing that they should
be swindled in order to favor a few
radical bondholders. Having pushed
these bondholders through he left the
people to take care of themselves. He
has many pets and favorites, but the
public at large doesn't appear to be one
of them.
